The zoom out button in the UI actually switches immediately to the next level of the seamless map rather than moving the camera within the current context
I absolutely loathe the new map system that takes forever to display any useful information.
But with the removal of system overview screen from the directional scan, i sometimes need to open the System Map to see where i am at in relationship to other celestial objects
Right now, it can be done rather conveniently with a single mouse click on the "zoom out" icon next to the autopilot icon.
But looks like the devs consider this a bug and want it to be a moving zoom button instead 
Please, i implore you, out of all the bugs you've ignored to fix, please leave this "bug" as a feature. You've already taken out all the functional efficiency from the map (making it a suicide to load the map in combat). Can you at least leave this handy feature as is
Thank you.
p.s. please keep all pro/con discussions of the maps to multiple topics regarding that

hold ctrl while scrolling, that way you get what you want, and i get the instant zoom out from the press of a button (when they fix it  ) for when i want to see where i am in relation to that fleet of sniping battleships.

Actually i loved using that little - button to zoom out, now after jumping having the camera right zoomed in again this button would have been more useful then ever to me, if they change it back to doing what it used to i'd be very happy. All you have to do to zoom out to the map is hold ctrl and scroll once backwards and you're there. There is however currently no fast way to zoom out, and there should be.

It's not like before the last patch you wanted to load the map while fighting.

The map is neat looking, but the interface needs some fine tuning. Zooming out and then in on the map feels slow, and might be more of a frill than a feature. I like being able to hover the mouse over a solar system for more information.

You can set that "oom to be instant. F10 / STARMAP / Controls or something / Animations / Zoom Speed = "Instant".

Doesnt work for me. Even with zoom Speed set to instant, the maps zoom is still animated if you have flatten map set to on.
Brings up the map in unflattened mode, then does animated movement to flattend mode. Very annoying in my opinion. Should just instantly display flattend mode.

Why don't you please try it first before suggesting. There is nothing instant about that "instant" option.

^^ That's exactly what happens.
